Seara will pay BRL80m ($20.2m) through a transfer of the Frederico Refrigerated Pork Plant, which is located in the city of Frederico Westphalen and BRL115m ($29.1m) through debt assumption, as well as BRL40m ($10m) in local currency.

Completion of the deal is subject to the approval of the Brazilian Antitrust Authority, amongst other usual conditions.

In a separate development, JBS told Reuters that Seara became the first company in Brazil that is authorised by India to sell chicken products in the country.

The company’s first shipment of chicken thighs and leg quarters is scheduled to take place in the next few weeks. JBS did not disclose the shipment volumes.
